Bug description

@prisma/adapter-better-sqlite3 currently depends on better-sqlite3 ^11.0.0.
better-sqlite3 attempts to download a prebuilt binary during installation, and falls back to building via node-gyp when no binary is available.

However, version ^11.0.0 only supports up to NODE_MODULE_VERSION 131, which means no binaries are available for Node.js v24 (NODE_MODULE_VERSION 137). See releases. As a result, on Node.js v24 environments node-gyp is always required.

Severity

🔹 Minor: Unexpected behavior, but does not block development

Reproduction

without node-gyp
install Node.js v24
npm isntall @prisma/adapter-better-sqlite3

Expected vs. Actual Behavior

Installed successfully

Frequency

Consistently reproducible

Does this occur in development or production?

Only in development (e.g., CLI tools, migrations, Prisma Studio)

Is this a regression?

No

Workaround

Bump better-sqlite3
